Tl;dr is read the fucking comment, your poor attention span that can't manage what would be a half sheet of paper is not my problem
I was joking, I read your comment, there's just not much substance in it, only about a cup. You got a little bit carried away there. You seem to love cooking and celebrate the whole process. Good for you. But not everyone has the luxury to spend eons to decipher inefficiently written recipes and convert ancient hieroglyphics into actually useful measurements. Converting all the measurements to what is actually useful is an unnecessary (mild) annoyance. It doesn't make the food better, it just makes the whole cooking process less enjoyable.
Ffs, ancient hieroglyphics? These units of measure are less than 200 years old
